‘This new range takes everything people love about Doritos and takes it to the next level, with bigger XXL chips, an incredible crunchy texture and even bolder flavours.

The new Doritos XXL are substantially larger and crispier than standard Doritos chips.
This tasty treat will be available in four different flavours: Ultimate Cheddar, Inferno Chilli & Lime, Smokehouse BBQ and Tangy Salsa.
Described by the chip makers as “the perfect pick-me-up to combat the 3 p.m. slump,” the coffee flavor announced Wednesday is sure to catch the attention of fans.
The snack combines the delicious aromatic flavor of coffee with the characteristic crunch of Doritos, but has already caused a stir among those who have tried it.
Several intrigued Australians who managed to get their hands on the chips early on shared their honest opinion, with many disapproving.
“Yuck! Yuck, sorry Doritos,” said one woman after screwing up her face. She gave the limited edition flavor a zero out of ten.
“What is that? It’s not even a one (out of ten). It’s horrible. Coffee? Why?” said one man after trying the French fry for the first time.
On July 3, the brand launched a bold new coffee-flavored potato chip (pictured) and opinions were divided.
“Honestly, it’s the worst thing I’ve ever tasted. It tastes like cardboard with spilled coffee on it,” she said after her second fry.
A third screwed up her face and said: “Not for me.”
Most tasters gave the snack a two, but a few announced that it “deserves a seven.”
A select few did not dislike the sweet taste of the coffee that much, but were unsure whether they would buy it.
“Wow, that’s kind of sweet,” one woman said.
Several intrigued Australians who managed to get their hands on the coffee-flavoured crisps shared their honest opinion – and some disapproved.
“It’s not that bad. I’d give it a seven, but I’d eat anything,” another man added.
